ASDOH has many important thoughs on Leaving Home.

1. no idea

2. the ascending limb is impermeable to water and solutes, so it actively transports sodium and chloride out of the tubular fluid; the interstitial fluid is again high in [solute], so because the descending limb is permeable to water, water moves into the interstitial fluid due to osmosis

3. they are the capillaries that surround the nephron and are able to capture all of the water, ions and nutrients that’s being let back out into the interstitial fluid

4. it is important for the active transport (secretion) of ions, protons, HCO3-, and waste; it increases protons in the blood, so it will therefore increase pH in the blood; this all happens through specific pumps and specific exchangers

5. renal pyramids are the organizations of the medulla (urine production occurs a lot here); the renal capsule is the tough, fibrous covering of the kidney; the renal pelvis is the big funnel where all the contents of the collecting duct are then sent to the ureter

6. the cortex of the kidney does not have a high ion concentration, while the medulla does; this is maintained by ?

7. urea (breakdown of ammonia from amino acids), creatinine (breakdown of creatine phosphate, a high energy compound used in muscle contraction), uric acid (breakdown and recycling of RNA)
